THIS IS ME RIGHT NOW... AND THEN LATER I WILL POST ANOTHER ONE!
THIS IS ME AT MY HEAVIEST!



My weight has always been an issue with me.. It has been hard to lose the weight. Some people can say " it's not hard, just don't eat" honestly; until a person has been overweight they don't know the emotional challenges that comes along with the weight. For me, I have hidden behind my weight, and it allowed me to be insecure and "under-active" basically it has allowed me to hide. Yea I love food, but my problem was not really in the food itself but the power of the food to "heal" my emotions and validate what I felt about myself.





Finally, I am overcoming emotions and allowing myself to change from the inside out. I am stepping up and telling myself that I don't need to hide to get active and be happy. Food is not my enemy, food is not my power, food is now my strength I still have my down moments, but I am changing how I eat in my down moments. I am proud of the me that is coming out of hiding. Its the same me, I am who I am, I am not changing, just allowing myself the freedom to be me.






I know the journey has just started and the journey will be a long one but I am healing! I am! Sig Frued once stated that the human mind is like an ice berg only surfaces come in and out and until the ice berg reaches it full heights, emotions are left underneath. My iceberg is not so small anymore! The Titantic can see it! LOL

You will change, though, Lena. I've seen women who battled with weight their entire lives lose LOTS and they become more confident! :o) So embrace the new you...so proud of what you're doing!

Welcome

I am still learning a lot about blogging, sometimes I keep up with it, sometimes it's weeks before I blog again, but I enjoy it so far!
